Anyone else notice that AAB is getting close to 1,000 members? Not bad!

Re: Getting Close
I just activated member #993 , Seven more and were there.
So far it's been GREAT and seems to get better as the months go by.
I have met some very cool people because of this Forum . I have got to spend time with some very good people [ In their HOMES and ON THEIR BOATS ] again I would like to THANK the Wifes and FAMILYS that have allowed me and some of our FRIENDS into their Life, homes and Boats. Pete let Tori know were coming back with a Moving Van one day
Of course you all are welcome anytime at my house . We are a good spot to stop if yall are traveling cross country and we have a BUTTLOAD of parking.
Again , it's a PLEASURE to have everyone aboard and getting along.
P.S. maybe we could get 2 or 3 boats with Forts together for 2012 in Alaska and have a AAB meet/Fish off in PWS

And I'll second what Lester said - There are some really great people on this forum. I too am honored to have met so many wonderful folks.

I don't remember Welder back in the THT days traveling to spend days upon a floating fort, drinking, fishing, and eating fat and happy with the compadres.
Hmmmm.....must be called "perks" of the Admin. Association.
Fortune 500 Forum Mogal perks. (or several weeks paid vacation time??)

Re: Getting Close
We just have to get a couple of boat owners to commit and of course we , as guest aboard said AWESOME boats would PAY for fuel, Food, Drinks and what ever else is needed.
Pete, can we use you for a reference that we don't steal , rape wife's or anything like that.
Would be FUN if we could put something together . That and I'm out of Spot Prawns.
